Blizzard provided Updated Diablo 3 Patch 2.1 Notes for the PTR over the weekend to reflect changes in the newest patch.

Diablo 3 Legendary drop rates are always a hot topic so what happens when you analyse 10,566 of them over the period of 30 days? Rhykker of our very own IncGamers HC East clan decided to find out and compiled the findings (see spreadsheet) in this neat video. 150 players from the clan took part, and from the 451 possible Legendary items that can drop, 23 never dropped at all and 20 dropped only once. The 10 most common items account for 9% of all drops and the most common one sixth of items account for half of all drops.

Does Reaper of Souls’ weighted drop rates, enormous variety of items, lack of trading, and general randomness make it too difficult to find what you want, and especially to collect complete item sets? Is it time for a Diablo 3 RNG Overhaul?

Diablo 3 conspiracy theories! Can RNG can be cheated, do we know the weighting for all legendary drops, and more. Also the joy of clans, legendary material hunting, and feeling forced to play Torment. Featuring Flux, Rankil, and Muggs.
